Hi there, Warriors -

My daughter's blog recently had all of her posts disappear. I went in to look at her database, and everything was there. I do nightly automated backups, so I wasn't too worried, but I can't figure out how to get her blog posts to show up publically again!

Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks,
Tim Jensen

    If you have updated or installed any new plugins rename the plugin folder or delete the plugins then try again. A bad plugin will cause everything to stop.

    Or any change in the theme?

    Maybe it is the new/changed theme...
    or some problem in config file of wp which may not be able to connect to db..

    is Wordpress showing any error when you load that blog?

    Hey Tim,
    Make sure you get that wordpress blog secured also ...

    On plugins - I have a dummy install that I test plugins on before I put them on a live blog. Always best to test first..

    Thanks, James. I have yet to go through your pdf on Wordpress Secured, but I did purchase it a while back. Will have to go back and read it.

    Thanks,

      Hi Tim,
      You will be getting a email soon with a huge discount on version 2 + affiliate link to earn from version 2 ...

      Go view the site to see what is included in version 2 as I have a pre-config setup now so no more editing of all those files.
